Benefits of technology

[0018] As explained above, according to the present invention, an advantageous effect is achieved where it is possible to obtain a display control apparatus and a display apparatus that are able to improve the visibility for the viewers when one or more viewers of the multi-view display apparatus are viewing the display from only one direction, or when only the picture displayed for one of the viewing directions is necessary, or when the source signals of the pictures that are displayed for the mutually different viewing directions are the same as one another.

Problems solved by technology

In these situations, using two display apparatuses requires extra space and increases the cost.

first embodiment

[0198] According to a first embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 12, the vehicle is equipped with a navigation apparatus N that guides a vehicle to a destination, a radiowave receiving unit 302 that receives digital terrestrial broadcasting, a multi-view display unit 325 that is operable to display, at the same time, a display image from the navigation apparatus N and a display image from the radiowave receiving unit 302, a display control apparatus 340 that controls the display of the multi-view display unit 325, imaging devices 330 that are used for a security purpose, and the like. The multi-view display unit 325 and the display control apparatus 340 constitute a display apparatus.

[0199] The navigation apparatus N includes a map-data storage unit 305 that stores therein road map data, a GPS receiving unit 306 that recognizes positional information of the vehicle in which the navigation apparatus N is installed, a GPS antenna 306a, an autonomous navigating unit 3...

second embodiment

[0243] In the description of a second embodiment of the present invention, a picture-signal generating unit will be explained in detail. The picture-signal generating unit generates the picture signal from the source signal, to improve the quality level of a picture viewed from a direction positioned between any two of the viewing directions that are positioned adjacent to each other. As shown in FIG. 18, the vehicle is equipped with the navigation apparatus N that guides a vehicle to a destination, a radiowave receiving unit 1302 that receives digital terrestrial broadcasting, a multi-view display apparatus 1340 that is operable to display, at the same time, a display image from the navigation apparatus N and a display image from the radiowave receiving unit 1302, imaging devices 1330 used for the security purposes, and the like.

[0244] The navigation apparatus N includes a map-data storage unit 1305 that stores therein road map data, a GPS receiving unit 1306 that recognizes posit...

third embodiment

[0291] According to a third embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 30, the vehicle is equipped with the navigation apparatus N that guides a vehicle to a destination, a radiowave receiving unit 2302 that receives digital terrestrial broadcasting, a DVD player 2303, a multi-view display unit 2301 that displays images that are output from these apparatuses, and the like. Also, a display control apparatus 2304 that controls the display of the multi-view display unit 2301 is provided. The multi-view display unit 2301 and the display control apparatus 2304 constitute a display apparatus.

[0292] The navigation apparatus N is configured to include a map-data storage unit 2305 that stores therein road map data, a GPS receiving unit 2306 that recognizes positional information of the vehicle in which the navigation apparatus N is installed, a GPS antenna 2306a, an autonomous navigating unit 2307 that manages a driving state of the vehicle, a route searching unit 2308 that searc...

Abstract

A display control apparatus controls a multi-view display apparatus that displays separate pictures for a plurality of viewing directions on a single screen. The display control apparatus includes a control unit that controls an output of the pictures based on a relationship between the pictures.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to a multi-view display apparatus that is operable to provide, substantially at the same time, mutually different pieces of information that are independent of each other, respectively to a plurality of users on a single screen. BACKGROUND ART [0002] Conventionally, most display apparatuses have been developed to optimize the display thereon so that the viewer is able to view an image equally having high quality no matter from which direction the display screen is viewed or so that a plurality of viewers are able to obtain the same information at the same time. However, there are many situations where it is preferable if a plurality of viewers are able to view mutually different pieces of information, respectively, on a single display. For example, in an automobile, the driver may wish to look at satellite navigation data, while a person sitting in the passenger seat may wish to watch pictures from an in-vehicle Digital Versatile ...
